This week we continue on in our focus on the most popular (aka "the sexiest") topic in leadership: strategic thinking. In last week's posting, we acknowledged that strategic leaders not only help unearth great ideas, but they navigate them through organizational gauntlets to get implemented. Strategic leaders do this in spite of the fact that great ideas don't get implemented simply because they are great. Organizational change is more complex than that.
Last week we covered the first two steps for bringing great ideas to fruition:
Step #1: Expect resistance
Step #2: Appreciate the pain
Now, we're ready for the step #3 and a video to help us feel what its like for new ideas to reach their potential.
